We're constantly juggling our relationships with other people, our jobs, our family, our thoughts about ourselves, our schedules-and that's what this book does with Bilie's life.

Things come to a head one night when Kate is sure she hears a noise in the neighbor’s shed and is convinced a child is hiding in there. I was completely drawn in by the characterisations and vivid scene setting, combined with a story that twisted brilliantly. The underlying themes of war, PTSD, child abuse and false memories were intelligently explored and I was genuinely gripped throughout the tale. Instead, we live 16 year old Billie's life for a few months and feel her frustrations with being a teenager and realizing her parents are flawed human beings.How this book made me feel: this novel started creating tension from the first pages, and it kept the intrigue going all the way till the very last page. Billie can’t talk to her parents about it; they act as if nothing is wrong, refusing to see the changes in their older daughter. A winner for those drawn to murky psychological suspense, like that of Ruth Rendell, Karin Fossum, and Flynn Berry in Under the Harrow.

As a result, My Sister’s Bones came across as realistic and sensitive to the issues at the heart of this novel. The story held some interest for me in that I kept listening but the inserts of the doctor interviewing Kate held on S136 which his for a period of up to 72 hours and involves more than just one doctor who seems to be on some kind of marathon I am going to assess you not stop for 72 hours is so ridiculously implausible that I have felt driven to add my thoughts.Unlike an author like Jodi Picoult, Cathi Hanauer does not delve into the minutia of Cassie's disease. Their relationship is explored through the retelling of each sister’s childhood but the pair barely interact and the sibling relationship was not shown nearly as much as I thought it would be. Tomorrow the tour is with Kate of bibliophilebookclub and there are still lots of other stops on the tour to check out. But an incident with a young Syrian boy haunts her dreams, and when Kate sees a boy in the garden of the house next door--a house inhabited by an Iraqi refugee who claims her husband is away and she has no children--Kate becomes convinced that something is very wrong.
